Students and faculty on both USC campuses will
practice their “drop, cover and hold on” techniques
Thursday during the third annual Great California
ShakeOut.
The ShakeOut is a statewide earthquake drill in-tended
to inform the public about what to do and how
to prepare in the event of an earthquake.
USC is one of 157 colleges and universities current-ly
registered to participate in the event, which will
take place at 10:21 a.m. Thursday.
Steve Goldfarb, a fire safety and emergency plan-ning
specialist, said it is extremely important for USC
to take part in this drill.
“If people know what to do and how to react in
the event of an earthquake, it will prevent injuries,”
Goldfarb said.
USC has participated in this event for the last two
years, and it has been very successful, he said.
This year, for the first time, USC has recruited
more than 200 people to facilitate the drill on cam-pus.
Called ShakeOut drill ambassadors, these faculty
members have been given the training and instruc-tions
to lead the drill in their particular areas of cam-pus.
In addition to the drop-and-cover drill, training
exercises will be held by various emergency response
teams on campus. These teams will review emergency
plans that are already in place and practice setting up

USC’s Tri Delta sorority kicked
off the first day of its Fat Talk Free
Week on Monday, an annual aware-ness
campaign aimed at ending
negative comments about female
body image.
Tri Delta’s national organization
began the movement in 2008, but
this is the USC chapter’s first year
participating, said Darcy Reinwald,
a Tri Delta sophomore majoring
in business administration who
co-organized the event. Although
the national organization’s motto
is “End fat talk,” USC’s chapter is
also employing the phrase “Healthy
is beautiful,” said Kirstyn Shaw,
a sophomore majoring in busi-ness
administration who is also in
charge of organizing the event.
“What we’re trying to accom-plish
is a healthy body image that’s
about being fit, eating right and
being comfortable with yourself,”

The USC Catholic Center held
the final Mass in its current
building on Sunday. Our Savior
Parish will be decommissioned
to make way for a new church,
scheduled to open in fall 2012.
Sunday Mass will be moved
to room 101 of the Salvatori
Computer Science Building while
construction is underway.
Daily Masses will be moved to
the Office of Religious Life in the
University Religious Center.
The USC Catholic Center will
move its operations to a temporary
location in University Village.
“Out of the ashes of this old
building will rise a beautiful new
building on par with the rest of
USC,” Father Lawrence Seyer said
during the service.
Auxiliary Bishop of Los Angeles
Joseph Sartoris presided over the
mass. Other clergy members were
also in attendance, many of whom
are alumni of USC and the parish.
The service included a special
blessing for members who have
received a sacrament — including
baptism, first communion,
confirmation or marriage — at
the parish.
Following the formal Mass,
a ceremony was held for the
decommissioning of the church.
Speakers included Joseph
Boskovich, the chairman of the
reconstruction, and Kathleen
McCarthy, daughter of the founder
of the Catholic Center.
“[This] means so much to me
and my family,” McCarthy said.
“I hope the students will treasure
what has been done for them [and
will] grow in their faith.”
Following the ceremony,
Seyer removed the tabernacle
— a cabinet that contains the
Eucharist — and locked the doors
of the church for the final time.
The crucifix was then taken off
the building, symbolizing the
official closing of the church.
“There are tears because of the
significance [of the old church],
but also joy because of the
building of the new church,” Seyer
said.
In hard hats that read “Fight
On!,” the organizers of the project
broke ground, officially beginning
the construction of the new
church. After the initial ground
was broken, students were also
invited to participate in the event.
“I think it’s going to be an
awesome facility,” said Rosalie
Murphy, a freshman majoring
in history. “It’s going to be cool
to have a new, more functional
space.”

The Seaver Plaza Food Court
on the Health Sciences Campus
opened last week after four
months of construction, which
had led HSC students and visitors
to seek other dining options such
as food trucks, students said.
“Before this opened, there were
only food trucks or the hospi-tal
cafeteria,” said Calvin Cha, a
first-year graduate student study-ing
pharmacy. “I was pretty ex-cited
about the renovation when I
heard that we were getting Panda
[Express].”
In addition to Panda Express,
the food court now offers
Starbucks, Poquito Mas and the
Marketplace, which stocks conve-nience
goods and snacks such as
fruit and sandwiches.
According to Kris Klinger,
director of USC Hospitality, the
decision to add these restau-rants
was to offer more and better
choices for dining.
